bit of a rant, but it's proper annoying when people use your photos and don't even say thanks or credit you when they upload them..... Good photo's don't just magic themselves.... grrr.

Being baited and tailgated by Type Rs, Focus/Fiesta STs, Clio Sports, on a busy road, in poor conditions. Just because it says GTI on my car doesn't mean I'm going to join you in driving like a complete tool.

I get the same from even the little 1.0L motors and it's so annoying. A golf GT with two younger lads tried it on with me a couple of weeks back so I had to show them who's the better driver and has the better car  :signLOL:

That's the thing though. I don't rise to it. Let them scream past and tell their mates they "beat a GTI".

Had this problem myself recently, A chap was selling a Saab Viggen coupe on ebay and was using pictures of my old car which I took in 2014 to sell his own car.

He also had a small business buying and selling Saabs and was using pictures of my cars and the mechanical and detailing work I had done and picures from a build thread I had.

Put a stop to it eventually but I was not impressed!

People who sit at a give way/roundabout, they can see you coming and there is nothing else to stop them pulling out so they wait and look and look and wait and wait some more then a little bit more then as you get closer they still wait then once you nice and close THEN they pull out, but not with any degree of acceleration so then you are forced to break and slow down to their 10-15mph pace and they don't make any attempt to use that right pedal for a few miles.

Add into that people who drive everywhere at 35 mph, up your arse or overtaking you in a 30 zone then hold you up in a 40/50mph zone.

People who insist on walking 2, 3 or 4 in a line down a narrow pavement and even when you walk onto the road look at you like you're the arthole.

Think i'm becoming a grumpy old fart at 34  :slap:

Or worse still... being behind someone who approaches a roundabout, painfully slows to a complete stop, and THEN looks to the right, to see that it's clear, and has been for the last 20 seconds which they'd have noticed if they had even the slightest idea how to drive.

Come to think of it, maybe it's these same people that pull out on you @nkp...?!

Probably  :happy2:. I do sometimes think these people lie in wait for me when i decide to go somewhere (don't do a lot of driving at the moment so it seems more frequent that it actually is). Its the same as folk who sit at the front of a queue waiting for the traffic lights to change and in that minute they've been waiting they've either fallen asleep and/or forgotten what to do when the lights go green so sit there for 30 seconds - just long enough for them to move and stop anyone else getting through before they change back to red again.

The annoying bits of paper (instructions) inside headache tablet boxes (ibuprofen, etc), which makes it really difficult to get the blister packs back in the box :doh: :signLOL:

People who write on a for sale thread

'I would of bought this if I didn't spend all my money on wheels last week'

Why comment if you haven't the money to buy it?!


Must be the same person that irritates me Adam  :grouphug:
